I built Spoon: a Windows Git client with AI commit messages

A developer released Spoon, a native Windows Git client that uses the same git and Git Credential Manager as the terminal and offers optional AI-generated commit messages via Grok, ChatGPT, or Claude. The MIT-licensed tool stores its configuration in %APPDATA%\spoon and is seeking feedback and issue reports.
